JENKEM - John Gardner's Tips for Building Up Your Mental Health

Phrases like “mental health,” “stress,” and “anxiety” sometimes feel like empty buzzwords that get thrown around too freely these days, but when you read into what people are actually talking about, you’ll realize we hear these words so often because so many people are dealing with real mental health issues and finally have a way to talk about it.

John is obviously not a doctor or certified expert, but he is someone that has been working on himself and is passionate about improving his own mental health and our community’s, too. Hopefully tools like this can play a small part in breaking the cycle of losing skaters to self-harm and suicide.
